as if reality
ends at our skins
they claimed
we should engage it more
as if we aren't spent
rock-boned
sludge-blooded
maelstrom'd of mind

as if reality
has to be shareable
but portable
for ease of capture
treasure hoarded
to end sharing

and if reality
could be touch-gifted
what would they do
when we kissed their lips
and gentle mountains
collapsed upon them
